I finally got around to taking some pictures after my Megasquirt install. Some people were asking about the harness and whatnot. Today, I spent some time fabricating an intake pipe from a 2.5" mandrel bend, first real fab work Ive done so far. Anyway, enjoy ... and yes I know its got a pretty fucked up interior but nobody seems to car when i step on the gas now















For this one, notice the timeslips, the dashboard smily face (compliments of my soldering gun), and the gauges showing it idling at 15:1 AFR and about 23 inches/32kpa

 

I like the engine bay. The interior is holy **** crazy though.

 

And I thought my interior is all sorts of fucked up


is that stock harness wired in to your ms?

 

Nice. Got it where it counts..

 

Thank you I'd written off the interior long ago and figured the car was a racecar and racecars do not need to be pretty. That harness is a boomslang female ecu harness. i can unplug it and plug the stock ecu in if i want ... although it wouldnt start. I did that so when emissions testing time comes in a year, i can put the AFM and stock injectors back on and pass without worries.

 

do not usually see a cleaner engine bay than the interior. :gay:

 

Here that should be the standard. Cleaner engine bay than interior or BAN!
j/k
Nice intake elbow BTW.

 

I am very proud of the engine bay, it is where much of my work has gone into

 

If i had an early model that wasn't very pretty, it would be stripped and shitty looking but i guarantee it would be fast.
Just like yours! (fast, not shitty looking)

 

I would consider wrapping the heater core hose that passes across the downpipe.

 

good idea.

 

So you ran an IAT sensor line into the stock engine harness? Did you also do something engine harness side for the fuel pump?

 

1.6 car right?

 

yes 1.6 and is that your 97 camry next to it?

 

sigh...i cant wait till i run MS and pull my afm and trun my filter in that spot behind my naca duct.

 

nah, my parents went to greece for spring break so i get to watch their nice big house for em. Been staying there every night actually, nice tv, pool, spa, free food, garage to do work in with tools like a mig welder, bench grinder, etc. The Camry is my sisters first car. My 97 (not pictured) is a miata and it is stock. Its really a lot of fun to drive out of the box.

 

that's not too bad, dust off the dash...get a junk yard dash front piece...could be worse, could have no dash

 

niceee

 

I just stumbled upon this post looking for the boomslang ecu connectors. This picture is erotic. Does it remind anyone else of a girl in an extremely high cut shirt? Mmmm.. miata ****.

 

I'd like to upgrade that to "holy **** STORM crazy"
your Miata is clearly illustrates from follow function
